Abstract: | In Gombrowicz’s novel Cosmos we can find a idea of reality, which is very similar
to Nietzsche’s metaphysical postulates. In this article I’d like to show that points in
the views both of autors, which are compatibile. Both of them characterize truth of
existence by chaos and becoming. Polish writer assumes that man has a ground in the
chaos, but can’t live without the ordering categories. Nietzsche also claims that we
stay in world of pretence, because we havn’t the instruments to experience the “will
of power” reality. It is a reason why people are looking for the way a chaos forming.
They have found the constancy in the language and in the logic, which creates the
world of pretence. In Gombrowicz’s novel human’s world is created by form. People
have to live in themselves reality, because chaos is a way to madness. |
